Pediatric Child Birth Defects

 

Children may be born with genetic or congenital disorders. Genetics means the disease is in the human chromosomes and congenital means illness present or acquired at birth as during labor and delivery. Birth injury may result in death or permanent disability.

 

Congenital disabilities include heart defects (of vessels, valve-valvular, hole, blood flow), spina bifida, anencephaly. Some defects are caused when the mother gets an infection such as cytomegalovirus, rubella, syphilis, Fifth disease, or chicken pox, alcohol drug abuse or Rh disease.

 

Genetic diseases are cystic fibrosis, hemophilia, fragile X, Huntington's, Klinefelter, neurofibromatosis, Marfan, Prader-Willi, retinoblastoma (causes blindness), sickle cell anemia, Tay-Sachs, trisomy, Turner's Syndrome, Wilson's Disease. Amniocentesis and prenatal counseling help diagnosis.
